GetToString method of roUrlTransfer

I am having a problem with the GetToString method of the roUrlTransfer object.

I am parsing the returning website and it has special characters such as upside down question marks, the (1/2) character and likewise.
The GetToString event does not return these characters.

Is there ANYTHING i can do about this? It throws a big monkey wrench in some of my plans.

Thanks,

    You could GetToFile and then go through the data byte by byte (see roByteArray ReadFile()) and remove or replace the special characters. I don't know if it's the best solution, but it should work.
